Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

 

 i 

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted in accordance with GAAP rules and regulations. The information furnished in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the recorded values of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the revenues recognized and expenses incurred during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions affect the Company’s recognition of deferred expenses, bad debts, income taxes, the carrying value of its long-lived assets and its provision for certain contingencies. The reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions is evaluated continually based on a combination of historical and other information that comes to the Company’s attention that may vary its outlook for the future. While management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, the Company recommends these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with its audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

 

 i 

Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 i 

Basis of AccountingThe Company uses the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

 i 

Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The core principle underlying ASC 606 is that the Company will recognize revenue to represent the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This will require the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer.

 

ASC 606 requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Revenues are generated as services are provided to the customer based on the sales price agreed and collected. The Company recognizes revenue as the time is worked or as units of production are completed, which is when the revenue is earned and realized. Labor costs are recognized as the costs are incurred.

 

The Company derives its revenue from the sale of services offered through its HCOs, MPNs, utilization review, medical bill review, medical case management services, lien defense, carve-outs, Medicare set-aside. These services are billed individually as separate components to our customers. These fees include monthly and/or annual HCO and/or MPN administration fees, claim and network access fees, medical bill review fees, legal support fees, Medicare set-aside fees, lien service fees, workers’ compensation carve-outs, utilization review fees, medical case management flat rate fees or hourly fees depending on the agreement with the customer.

 i 

Accounts Receivables and Bad Debt Allowance – In the normal course of business the Company extends credit to its customers on a short-term basis. Although the credit risk associated with these customers is minimal, the Company routinely reviews its accounts receivable balances and makes provisions for doubtful accounts. The Company ages its receivables by dates of invoices. Management reviews bad debt reserves quarterly and reserves specific accounts as warranted or sets up a general reserve based on amounts over 90 days past due. When an account is deemed uncollectible, the Company charges off the receivable against the bad debt reserve. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of these receivables including the current creditworthiness of each customer and related aging of the past-due balances, including any billing disputes. To assess the collectability of these receivables, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Through these evaluations, the Company may become aware of situations where a customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial viability, credit rating or bankruptcy. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the best information available to the Company and is reevaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The Company evaluates the allowance based on historical write-off experience, the size of the individual customer balances, past-due amounts, and the overall national economy. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, bad debt reserves of $ i 7,696 and $ i 23,083, respectively, were maintained in a general reserve for certain balances over 90 days past due and for accounts that are potentially uncollectible.

Significant Customers - The Company provides services to insurers, third party administrators, self-administered employers, municipalities, and other industries. The Company is able to provide its full range of services to virtually any size employer in the state of California. Outside the state of California, the Company is able to provide utilization review, medical bill review and medical case management services.

 

 i 

During the period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had  i two customers, respectively, that accounted for more than 10% of its total sales. The following table sets forth details regarding the percentages of total sales attributable to the Company’s significant customers in the past two years:

Leases - The Company follows the guidance of ASC 842, Leases, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases. The Company elected to exclude from its balance sheets recognition of leases having a term of 12 months or less (“short-term leases”). Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. See Note 2 for further information regarding the Company’s leases.

 

 i 

NOTE 2 - OPERATING LEASES

 

In July 2015, the Company entered a  i 79-month lease for approximately  i 9,439 square feet of office space, which lease commenced in September 2015 and ended in April 2022. That office space served as the Company’s principal executive offices, as well as the principal offices of its operating subsidiaries.

 

The Company entered a new  i 12-month office lease that commenced on April 1, 2022 with a monthly rent of $ i 3,301. The lease provides  i 320 square feet of office space that includes shared space for other business needs and expires March 31, 2023. This office space now serves as the principal executive offices of the Company, as well as the principal offices of the Company’s operating subsidiaries. The Company has reduced its office space as the majority of its workforce will continue working remotely. The new office space will be for the executive team and shared office space for key employees to use as needed.

 

Lease expenses were $ i 9,903 and $ i 80,246 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ i 19,806 and $ i 204,651 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this quarterly report and in our other filings with the Commission.

 

Overview

 

We incorporated under the laws of the state of Utah in April 1970, under the name Clear Air, Inc. We changed our name to Pacific Health Care Organization, Inc., in January 2001. In February 2001, we acquired Medex, a California corporation organized in March 1994, in a share for share exchange. Medex is in the business of managing and administering both Health Care Organizations (“HCOs”) and Medical Provider Networks (“MPNs”) in the state of California. In August 2001 we formed IRC, a California corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary of PHCO. Prior to closing IRC, IRC oversaw and managed our Workers’ Compensation carve-outs services. In June 2010, we acquired MLS, a Nevada corporation incorporated in September 2009. Prior to closing MLS, MLS offered lien representation services and Medicare set-aside services (“MSA”). In February 2012, we incorporated MMM, a Nevada corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. MMM is responsible for overseeing and managing medical case management services. In March 2011, we incorporated MMC, a Nevada corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. MMC oversees and manages the Company’s utilization review and bill review services. In October 2018, we incorporated PMHC, a Nevada corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company to act as a holding company for future potential acquisitions.

 

In October 2021, to simplify business procedures, bookkeeping and administrative structure; and eliminate duplicative functions and reduce costs; we terminated the existence of IRC, MLS and PMHC and wound up those subsidiaries. The business, assets, liabilities, and services of those entities were transferred to PHCO or its other subsidiaries. Medex now offers our Workers’ Compensation carve-out services previously provided by IRC and Medicare-set asides previously managed by MLS. MMC oversees the lien representation services previously offered by MLS.

 

Business of the Company

 

We offer an integrated and layered array of complimentary business solutions that enable our customers to better manage their employee Workers’ Compensation-related healthcare administration costs. We are constantly looking for ways to expand the suite of services we can provide our customers, either through strategic acquisitions or organic development.

 

Our business objective is to deliver value to our customers by reducing their Workers’ Compensation-related medical claims expense in a manner that will assure injured employees receive high quality healthcare that allows them to recover from injury and return to gainful employment without undue delay. According to studies conducted by auditing bodies on behalf of the California Division of Workers’ Compensation, (“DWC”) the two most significant cost drivers for Workers’ Compensation are claims frequency and medical treatment costs. Our services focus on containing medical treatment costs.

 

We offer our customers access to our HCOs and our MPNs. We also provide medical case management, field medical case management, network access, utilization review, medical bill review, Workers’ Compensation carve-outs and Medicare set-aside services. Additionally, we offer lien representation and expert witness testimony, ancillary to our services. We provide our services as a bundled solution, as standalone services, or as add-on services.

 

Our core services focus on reducing medical treatment costs by enabling our customers to share control over the medical treatment process. This control is primarily obtained by participation in one of our medical treatment networks. We hold several government-issued licenses to operate medical treatment networks. Through Medex we hold two of a total of seven licenses issued by the state of California to establish and manage HCOs within the state of California. We also hold approvals issued by the state of California to act as an MPN and currently administer 26 MPNs. Our HCO and MPN programs provide our customers with provider networks within which our customers have some ability to direct the administration of employee claims. This is designed to decrease the incidence of fraudulent claims and disability awards and ensure injured employees receive the necessary back-to-work rehabilitation and training they need. Our medical bill and utilization review services provide oversight of medical billing and treatment requests, along with medical case management, which keeps medical treatment claims progressing to a resolution and assures treatment plans are aligned from a medical perspective.

 

Our customers include self-administered employers, insurers, third party administrators, municipalities, and others. Our principal customers are companies with operations located in the state of California where the cost of Workers’ Compensation insurance is a critical problem for employers, though we are able to process medical bills nationally. Our provider networks, which are located only in California, are composed of providers experienced in treating worker injuries.

 

Our business generally has a long sales cycle, typically eight months or more. Once we have established a customer relationship and enrolled employees of our employer customers, we anticipate our revenue to adjust with the growth or retraction of our customers’ employee headcount. Throughout the year, we expect new employees and employer customers to be added while others terminate for a variety of reasons.

 

11

 

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business

 

In February 2022, California passed another COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave law (“CSPSL”). It provides employees paid leave for COVID-19 related reasons such as caring for themselves, family members, or for vaccine related appointments or illnesses caused by COVID-19 or the vaccine from January 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022. The CSPSL allows employees to retroactively request reimbursement for qualifying leave or to use it towards future requests through September 30, 2022. Employers whose employees utilize CSPSL are ineligible for federal tax credits to offset the costs of providing the CSPSL. On September 29, 2022, California passed a bill that extended the CSPSL leave through December 31, 2022 and provides a supplemental paid sick leave relief grant program for employers to be reimbursed for the CSPSL.

 

We will continue to offer COVID-19-specific paid leave benefits to our employees until the expiration of CSPSL. Family, medical, and other types of leave remain available to employees under existing Company policy. As of September 30, 2022, we have incurred negligible payroll, benefits, administrative, and liability costs related to CSPSL. However, we could incur some significant costs if additional booster shots are recommended or required later in 2022, or if another spike in COVID-19 results in increased usage of the CSPSL benefit by employees.

 

Key trends affecting results of operations

 

As noted throughout this quarterly report, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, COVID-19 has impacted the businesses of our customers, our business and our results of operations. Most of our customers, and their employees are located in California. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, California had in place COVID-19 restrictions on businesses which resulted in many of our customers reducing their workforces and caused a decrease in the number of new workers’ compensation claims, as a result of fewer workers in the labor force. Allowable medical treatment for workers’ compensation claims were also limited to help ease the burden of COVID-19 on medical facilities. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, California businesses were able to operate without these COVID-19 restrictions and restrictions on allowable medical treatments for workers’ compensation claims were lifted. As identified in more detail in our discussion of result of operations below, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the lifting of these restrictions has generally led to increased demand from existing customers for our services, as their employees returned to the workforce and correlated workplace injuries increased, along with medical facilities and providers having the capacity to begin treating the backlog of workplace injuries that occurred when allowable treatment restrictions due to COVID-19 were in place. We anticipate the foregoing trends will continue at decreasing rates over future periods as the remaining workforces that return to in-person work levels off and the backlog of untreated workers’ compensation cases normalizes. These trends have also contributed to increased claims-related expenses for services provided to us by third parties, as certain such expenses increase in correlation with the demand for our services.

 

California has in place legislation to address employer liability in Workers’ Compensation for COVID-19 cases. The law presumes that COVID-19 illnesses contracted by employees are work related and therefore eligible for workers’ compensation coverage, subject to certain rebuttable presumptions. Our customers experienced an increase in COVID-19 related workers’ compensation claims throughout 2021 and during the first quarter of 2022 but saw declines in COVID-19 related claims in the second and third quarters of 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, approximately 8% of all claims we processed have been COVID-19 related, with 53% of those claims occurring in the first quarter of 2022. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, approximately 5% of all claims processed were COVID-19 related.

 

Revenue generated from COVID-19 workers’ compensation claims may become seasonal and as the frequency of contracting COVID-19 increases and the severity of cases decreases, it is possible that in the future COVID-19 will no longer be classified as a workers’ compensation illness in California. A portion of our revenue is generated from fees from our customers when a workers’ compensation claim is opened. If the change of classification for COVID-19 related claims no longer requires employers to report it as a workers’ compensation injury, there would be a decrease in our COVID-19 related revenues, but we would anticipate this decrease would be offset by an increase in other workers’ compensation injuries as more employees return to the labor pool.

 

Some of our customers’ industries have been impacted by the recent national trend of workforce resignations and difficulties in hiring. If our customers cannot attract new workers, it is possible that some jobs will be replaced with technology. If technology replaces workers, and/or workplace injuries continue at lower rates because there are more employees working from home and fewer employees suffering injuries in the workplace, the increases in revenues we are beginning to see could flatten or decline.

 

Our revenues for medical case management were also impacted because there was a smaller labor pool which resulted in fewer new workers’ compensation claims. We believe this trend will be temporary, as the economy recovers from the effects of COVID-19, but if the trend to smaller labor pools continues, or if an economic recovery is slowed as a result of higher inflation or economic recession, medical case management reviews and resulting revenues could continue to remain lower in the future.

Revenue

 

We derive revenue primarily from fees charged for access to our provider networks, enrollment of customers’ employees into the HCO or MPN program, utilization reviews, medical bill reviews, and medical case management services.

 

HCO

 

HCO revenue is generated largely from fees charged to our employer customers for claim network fees to access our HCO networks, employee enrollment into our HCO program, program administration, custom network fees, annual and new hire notifications and fees for other ancillary services they may select. HCO notifications are mailed out annually and handed out by the employer for all new hires.

 

MPN

 

Like HCO revenue, MPN revenue is generated largely from fees charged to our employer customers for claim network fees to access our MPN networks, custom network fees, employee enrollment into our MPN program, program administration, and fees for other services our MPN customers may select. Unlike the HCO, MPNs do not require annual and new hire notifications, MPNs are only required to provide a notice to an injured worker at the time the employer is notified by the injured worker that an injury occurred.

 

Utilization review

 

Utilization review is the review of medical treatment requests by providers to provide a safeguard for employers and injured workers against unnecessary and inappropriate medical treatment from the perspective of medical necessity, quality of care, appropriateness of decision-making, and timeliness of treatment. Its purpose is to reduce employer liability for medical costs that are not medically appropriate or approved by the relevant medical and legal authorities and the payor.

 

Medical bill review

 

California and many other states have established fee schedules for the maximum allowable fees payable under workers’ compensation for a variety of procedures performed by medical providers. Many procedures, however, are not covered under the fee schedules, such as hospital bills, which still require review and negotiation. Medical bill review involves analyzing medical provider services and equipment billing to ascertain proper reimbursement. Such services include, but are not limited to, coding review and re-bundling, confirming that the services are customary and reasonable, fee schedule compliance, out-of-network bill review, pharmacy review, and preferred provider organization repricing arrangements. Our medical bill review services can result in significant savings for our customers.

 

Medical case management

 

Medical case management keeps medical treatment claims progressing to a resolution and assures treatment plans are aligned from a medical perspective. Medical oversight is a collaborative process that assesses, evaluates, coordinates, implements and monitors medical treatment plans and the options and services required to meet an injured worker’s health needs. A medical case manager acts as a liaison between the injured worker, claims adjuster, medical providers, and attorneys to achieve optimal results for injured workers and our employer customers. We work to manage the number of nurses in our program to maintain our ratio of claims per nurse at a level that ensures timely and appropriate medical care is given to the injured worker and facilitates faster claims closures for our customers.

 

Other

 

Other revenue consists of revenue derived from network access fees charged to non-HCO, non-MPN customers to access our network of medical providers, network access for preferred provider organizations, lien representation, legal support services, Medicare set-aside and Workers’ Compensation carve-out services.

Revenue

 

HCO

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, HCO revenue increased 23%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributable to a renegotiation of certain deliverables to an existing customer and an increase in claims activity from existing customers which generated fees for notifications and claim network fees. These increases were partially offset by the loss of two customers in the fourth quarter of 2021, which decreased revenues from HCO enrollment. Part of the revenue generated in HCO fees is for the opening of workers’ compensation claims. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, 4% of HCO claims were COVID-19 related, compared to 5% in the same period in the prior year. If California legislation declassifies COVID-19 as a workers’ compensation claim, we expect HCO revenues to decrease.

 

MPN

 

MPN revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, decreased by 7%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in MPN revenue was due to a decrease in the number claims reported due to the loss of a customer in the fourth quarter of 2021 that resulted in lower claims activity. Part of the revenue generated in MPN fees is for the opening of workers’ compensation claims. The decrease in MPN revenue was partially offset by increases in claims activity by existing customers due to higher COVID-19 related claims. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, 30% of MPN claims were COVID-19 related, compared to 28% in the same period in the prior year. If California legislation declassifies COVID-19 as a workers’ compensation claim, we expect MPN revenues to decrease.

 

Utilization review

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, utilization review revenue increased 72%, compared to the same period in the prior year due to an increase in utilization reviews from existing customers and the addition of a new customer in the fourth quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by decreases due to the loss of a customer in the third quarter of 2021.

 

Medical bill review

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, medical bill review revenue decreased by 16%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was mainly due to processing fewer hospital bills from existing customers and the percentage of saving we earned on hospital bills processed was lower. Medical bill reviews are billed at a flat rate, while hospital bills are billed at a percentage of savings and fluctuate during the year.

 

Medical case management

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, medical case management revenue decreased 12%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in medical case management revenue was primarily due to customers electing not to apply medical case management to all of their COVID related claims in the 2022 period as they had done in the 2021 period and a decrease in the number of new referred claims managed with existing customers as a result of fewer workplace injuries during 2020 and 2021 due to COVID related workforce restrictions.

 

Other

 

Other revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, decreased 36%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in other revenue was the result of fewer Medicare set-aside claims and the discontinuation of our network referral access for non-HCO, non-MPN customers after the loss of our last customer who utilized the service in the fourth quarter of 2021. We do not anticipate future revenues from network referral fees generated from referrals to non-HCO, non-MPN customers, as we no longer offer this service. The decrease was partially offset by increases in fees for network access for preferred provider organizations, we expect other revenue to be lower in future periods.

 

Expenses

 

Total expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2022, decreased 1%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was attributable to decreases in depreciation, bad debt provision, consulting fees, insurance, data maintenance, and general and administrative partially offset by increases in salaries and wages and outsource service fees.

 

16

 

Insurance

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, insurance expenses decreased 8%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in insurance expenses was primarily attributed to decreases in medical insurance premiums as a result of us having fewer employees in 2022, compared to 2021.

 

Outsource service fees

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, fees for outsourced services increased 43%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to an increased demand for our services primarily from existing clients for utilization review, a service which we partially outsource.

 

General and administrative

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses decreased 34%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in rent – office, auto expense, bank charges, charity – cash contributions, licenses and permits, travel, office supplies, postage, telephone, and vacation expenses. The largest decrease was in rent – office as we moved into a smaller office. The other various expenses that are part of maintaining a larger office such as postage, telephone, and office supplies were also lower as we adjusted our operations to take advantage of cloud based solutions. The decreases were partially offset by increases in advertising, dues and subscriptions, education, IT enhancement, meals, miscellaneous expenses, and parking. Due to moving most of our office operations to cloud or software services, dues and subscriptions for these services increased along with increases in IT security education for our employees and additional IT enhancements.

 

Income from operations

 

As a result of the $143,379 increase in total revenue during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, and the $16,721 decrease in total expenses during the same period, our income from operations increased $160,100, or 150%, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the same period in the prior year.

 

Income tax provision

 

We realized an increase in our income tax provision of $44,941, or 150%, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year, because of the increase in income before taxes realized.

 

Net income

 

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, we realized an 11% increase in total revenues, a 1% decrease in total expenses, and a 150% increase in our provision for income tax when compared to the same period in the prior year. As a result, we realized a net increase of $115,159, or 150%, in net income during the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year.

Revenue

 

HCO

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, HCO revenue increased 5%, compared to the same period the prior year. The increase in HCO revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in claims from existing customers and renegotiation of certain deliverables to an existing customer. If California legislation declassifies COVID-19 as a workers’ compensation claim, we expect HCO revenues to decrease.

 

18

 

MPN

 

MPN revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, increased 6%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributable to an increase in the number of claims reported by existing customers in the first quarter due to an increase in COVID-19 related claims, partially offset by the loss of a customer in the fourth quarter of 2021. Like HCO revenue, MPN revenue is generated largely from fees charged to our employer customers for access to our MPN networks, per claim fees and fees for other ancillary services. If California legislation declassifies COVID-19 as a workers’ compensation claim, we expect MPN revenues to decrease.

 

Utilization review

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, utilization review revenue increased 53%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in utilization reviews submitted by existing customers and a new customer added in the fourth quarter of 2021.

 

Medical bill review

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, medical bill review revenue increased by 14%, when compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in hospital and non-hospital bills reviewed as injured workers began seeking medical treatment for injuries suffered during the pandemic when medical treatment for workers’ compensation claims were subject to restrictions.

 

Medical case management

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, medical case management revenue decreased by 12%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in medical case management revenue was primarily due to customers electing not to apply medical case management to all of their COVID related claims in the 2022 period as they had done in the 2021 period and a decrease in the number of new referred claims managed with existing customers as a result of fewer workplace injuries during 2020 and 2021 due to COVID related workforce restrictions.

 

Other

 

Other revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, decreased 41%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily the result of fewer Medicare set-aside claims, fewer fees for network access for preferred provider organizations and the discontinuation of our network referral access for non-HCO, non-MPN customers after the loss of our last customer who utilized the service in the fourth quarter of 2021. As noted above, since the fourth quarter of 2021 we discontinued network referral access for non-HCO, non-MPN customers as this type of service is no longer offered in the marketplace, we expect other revenue to be lower in future periods.

 

Expenses

 

Total expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, decreased 1%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was the result of decreases in depreciation, bad debt provision, consulting fees, salaries and wages, insurance, data maintenance, and general and administrative, which was partially offset by an increase in professional fees and outsource service fees.

 

Outsource service fees

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, outsource service fees increased 42%, compared to the same period the prior year. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the volume of utilization reviews and medical bill reviews, partially offset by fewer Medicare set-aside claims. The increase in the volume of utilization review and medical bill review is due to injured workers now seeking medical treatment for injuries that occurred during the pandemic when treatments for workplace injuries were restricted, as well as for our customers’ employees returning to the workforce and getting injured on the job. The increased volume in these services required us to increase our usage of these outsourced services.

 

Data maintenance

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, data maintenance fees decreased 21%, compared the same period the prior year. The decrease was primarily the result of decreases in the number of claims from the loss of an MPN customer in the fourth quarter of 2021 that generates fees for MPN notifications, partially offset by increases in our customers’ employee counts for enrollment into our HCO and MPN programs.

 

19

 

General and administrative

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses decreased by 15%, compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in auto expenses, bank charges, licenses and permits, office supplies, postage and delivery, printing and reproduction, rent expense - equipment, rent expense – office, shareholders’ expense, telephone, and vacation expense. Rent expense – office, telephone, and vacation expense, were 61%, 11%, and 16%, respectively of the overall decreases in expenses. Rent expense for office and telephone decreased in May 2022, when we moved office locations to a much smaller location and moved to a cloud based phone system. The decreases were partially offset by increases in advertising, dues and subscriptions, education, equipment – repairs, IT enhancement/internet, meals, travel, miscellaneous expenses, and parking. IT enhancement, dues and subscriptions and miscellaneous expenses increased due to the office move, making changes to our IT systems and transitioning office software and phones to subscription based services.

 

Income from operations

 

Total revenues increased by $303,400 and total expenses decreased by $39,662, which led to an increase in income from operations of $343,062.

 

Other income (expense)

 

In February 2021, the principal and interest on the PPP loans issued to PHCO, MMC and MMM in April and May 2020, was forgiven in full. As a result, we realized income from paycheck protection loan forgiveness of $464,386 and loan interest expense from paycheck protection loans of $3,686 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, resulting in total other income during the period of $460,700. During the corresponding period ended September 30, 2022, we realized no other income (expense).

 

Income tax provision

 

We realized a 40% increase in our income tax provision during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, we realized $343,062 more in income from operations than during the same period in the prior year. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, we realized net other income of income of $460,700 PPP loan forgiveness. The other income realized from the PPP loan forgiveness in the 2021 period was exempt from federal income taxation, but not state income taxation, which was the primary contributing factor to why our income tax provision was higher in the 2022 period than the 2021 period despite the fact that our income before taxes was actually higher in the 2021 period.

 

Net income

 

As noted in the preceding paragraph, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, we realized a $343,062 increase in income from operations compared to the prior year period. However, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, we realized $460,700 in other income as a result of PPP loan forgiveness. We realized no other income during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022. As a result, we realized a $173,778, or 26% decrease in net income during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is a measurement of our ability to meet our potential cash requirements for general business purposes. We consistently monitor our liquidity and financial position and take actions management believes are in the best interest of our Company and our shareholders to ensure the long-term financial viability of our Company. Historically, we have realized positive cash flows from operating activities, which coupled with positive reserves of cash on hand, have been used to fund our operating expenses and obligations. We have not historically used, nor do we currently possess, a credit facility or other institutional source of financing.

 

As a result of the pandemic subsiding, restrictions being removed and employees returning to work, coupled with our efforts to transition the Company to a remote working environment, and reductions in overhead expenses, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, we saw an increase in revenues and a decrease in expenses. We have continued to realize net income and net cash from operations and have increased our net cash position. Management currently believes that absent (i) any unanticipated further COVID-19 impacts, (ii) economic recession or a longer-term downturn in the general economy, (iii) further impacts related to rising or sustained inflation or the sanctions, countermeasures and other actions in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, or (iv) the loss of several major customers within a condensed period, cash on hand and anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to cover our operating expenses for at least the next twelve months, as well as for the longer term.

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash on hand of $10,640,063 compared to $10,085,372 as of December 31, 2021. The $554,691 increase was the result of net cash provided by our operating activities, partially offset by cash used in investing activities.

 

We took advantage of both the First Draw and Second Draw Paycheck Protection Programs. Because the funds were used as designated under those programs, we received full forgiveness of all PPP loans received. In the future we may further avail ourselves of federal, state, or local government programs to protect our workforce as management and our board of directors determine to be in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders.

 

We have planned certain capital expenditures, including changing our operational software, the process of which we are currently undergoing. We anticipate the cost to change operational software will result in significantly higher capital expenditures than in previous years. We encountered difficulties with the first software vendor in this transition and have had to seek another software vendor, the result of which has delayed this transition and increased capital expenditures for this project. If we encounter further issues or delays with the transition capital expenditures could be higher than anticipated, but we believe we have adequate capital on hand to cover these expenses. We do not anticipate these expenditures will require us to seek outside sources of funding.

 

We believe our strong cash position could allow us to identify and capitalize on potential opportunities to expand our business through the acquisition of existing businesses that may have insufficient resources to overcome the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or current uncertain economic conditions. Such expansion could occur through accretion to existing business lines or expansion into new business lines and related industries, including, but not limited to, the insurance industry. We may also seek growth through organic development of new lines of business or expansion of existing offerings. Depending upon the nature of the opportunities we identify, such acquisitions or expansion could require greater capital resources than we currently possess. Should we need additional capital resources, we could seek to obtain such through debt and/or equity financing. We do not currently possess an institutional source of financing and there is no assurance that we could be successful in obtaining equity or debt financing when needed on favorable terms, or at all. We could also use shares of our capital stock as consideration for a business acquisition transaction, but there is also no assurance that there would be significant interest in our capital stock by a potential seller or the market.

 

As a result of the unique nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our operations, the operations of our customers and the broader economy, coupled with uncertainty surrounding the potential impacts of rising inflation or economic recession, we cannot provide any assurance that the assumptions management has used to estimate our liquidity requirements will remain accurate in either the short-term or the longer-term. The ultimate duration and impact of these events on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, which are uncertain, largely beyond our control and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty at this time. We expect that our results of operations, including revenues, in future periods will be partially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic due to the possibility that as COVID-19 becomes more common and less severe that COVID-19 workers’ compensation claims may no longer be classified as a workers’ compensation illness. We expect that with rising inflation profit margins will be impacted due to fixed pricing for some of our public entity customers and the increasing costs in salaries and wages as we compete to recruit and retain employees.

 

Cash flow

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash was primarily used to fund operations. We had a net increase in cash of $554,691 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. See below for additional information.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $572,310 and $449,993, respectively, an increase of $122,317. This increase was primarily the result of decreases in accounts receivable, deferred rent asset, income tax receivable, other assets, accrued expenses, partially offset by increases in allowance for bad debt, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, income tax payable, and unearned revenue. We realized higher net income during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, than the same period 2022, as a result of receiving PPP loan forgiveness in the amount of $460,700 during the 2021 period.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $17,619 and $12,199 during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash was used in investing activities to purchase new software and other IT enhancements.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not engage in any financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $218,900. In April 2021, MMM received a Second Draw PPP loan in the amount of $218,900, that was fully forgiven with accrued interest in December of 2021.

 

Off-balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

We experience pricing pressures in the form of competitive pricing. Insurance carriers and third-party administrators compete against us for customers by offering bundled claims administration services with their own managed care services at a lower rate. We are also impacted by rising costs for certain inflation-sensitive operating expenses such as labor and employee benefits and facility leases. We believe that these impacts can be material to our revenues or net income. Some of our customers are public entities which contract with us at a fixed price for the term of the contract. Increases in labor and employee benefits can reduce our profit margin over the term of these contracts. See also “Effects of inflation” of Item 1A Risk Factor of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on April 14, 2022.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Application of these principles requires us to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We continually evaluate our accounting policies, estimates, and judgments and base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the inherent uncertainty in making estimates and judgments, actual results could differ from our estimates and judgments. We consider (i) revenue recognition, (ii) leases, (iii) allowance for uncollectible accounts, and (iv) income taxes to be the most critical accounting policies because they relate to accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments by us, and, as such, could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

 

Revenue recognition: We recognize revenue when control of the promised services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services. As we complete our performance obligations which are identified below, we have an unconditional right to consideration as outlined in our contracts with our customers. Generally, our accounts receivables are expected to be collected in 30 days in accordance with the underlying payment terms.

 

We offer multiple services under our managed care and network solutions service lines, which the customer may choose to purchase. These services are billed individually as separate components to our customers. Revenue is recognized as the work is performed in accordance with our customer contracts. Based upon the nature of our products, bundled managed care elements are generally delivered in the same accounting period. Advance payments from subscribers and billings made in advance are recorded on the balance sheet as unearned revenue.

 

Leases: We determine if an arrangement includes a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term; and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease, renewal date of the lease or significant remodeling of the lease space based on the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable.

 

22

 

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are initially recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which we could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. Our leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise any such options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Allowance for uncollectible accounts: We determine our allowance for uncollectible accounts by considering several factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivables are past due, our previous loss history, the customers’ current ability to pay their obligations to us, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. We write off accounts receivables when they become uncollectible.

 

We must make significant judgments and estimates in determining contractual and bad debt allowances in any accounting period. One significant uncertainty inherent in our analysis is whether our experience will be indicative of future periods. Although we consider future projections when estimating contractual and bad debt allowances, we ultimately make our decisions based on the best information available to us at the time the decision is made. Adverse changes in general economic conditions or trends in reimbursement amounts for our services could affect our contractual and bad debt allowance estimates, collection of accounts receivables, cash flows, and results of operations. Two customers accounted for 10% or more of accounts receivable at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Accounting for income taxes: We record a tax provision for the anticipated tax consequences of our reported results of operations. The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

 

Management believes it is more likely than not that forecasted income, including income that may be generated as a result of certain tax planning strategies, together with future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, will be sufficient to fully recover the deferred tax assets. In the event we determine all, or part of the net deferred tax assets are not realizable in the future, we will make an adjustment to the valuation allowance that would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. In addition, the calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of GAAP and complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results. The significant assumptions and estimates described above are important contributors to our ultimate effective tax rate in each year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide this information.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, which are controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Except for the following risk factor, we do not believe there have been any material changes to the risk factors listed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our annual report. The below risk factor and risk factors in our annual report could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations, and should be carefully considered with the information provided elsewhere in this report.

 

We are reliant on the timely, accurate and consistent provision of outsourced services for various services and business functions, the disruption, malfunction, termination or replacement of which could impede our ability to provide our services and adversely affect our business.

 

We contract with various third party vendors for the provision and support of our services and business functions, including the critical information systems functionality upon which our services rely. Our business is dependent upon our ability to provide, in an efficient and uninterrupted manner, necessary business functions which we outsource, such as the processing and support of enrollment in our HCO and MPN programs, and the partial outsourcing of our utilization review, medical bill review, administrative services for medical case management and Medicare set-aside services. Our operations may be adversely affected if there is a failure, disruption or malfunction in the provision of such outsourced services, or if the relationship with or services provided by our vendors are terminated in whole or in part. Further, we may not be able to find an alternative vendor in a timely manner, on acceptable terms or that can provide the services of our current vendors.

 

Outsourcing also may require us to change our existing operations or adopt new processes for providing or managing our services. If there are delays or difficulties in changing business processes or our third-party vendors do not perform as expected, it may delay our ability to provide our services and we may not realize, or not realize on a timely basis, the anticipated functionality or benefits of these relationships. Terminating or transitioning, in whole or in part, arrangements with vendors could result in additional costs or penalties, risks of operational delays and interruptions, or potential errors and control issues during the termination or transition phase. For example, we have had difficulties implementing a new operational software system and are seeking a different vendor to provide that system, which has resulted in delays in implementing this project and additional capital expenditures. If there is an interruption in our ability to provide our services or loss of access to data resulting from a malfunction, termination or transition in outsourced services, we may not be able to meet the demands of our customers and, in turn, our business and results of operations could be adversely impacted.
